![]() ![]() This is one book that scores a perfect game! Otherwise I enjoyed the portrayal of Miles and Amy and their friends Randall and Tate, and their realistic and humorous interactions. I didn't think the story needed the Narrator, whose asides seemed more a distraction. ![]() It's a comforting story about family connections, dealing with grief, and the tentative path to a new friendship. Miles and Amy meet when his bowling shoe accidentally hits her in the head. She also finds her place as a page at the school library. Writing stories is how Amy copes with her grief and loneliness in the midst of life change. ![]() While her father trains to work in the funeral business with his brother, she lives with her Uncle Matt at his funeral home. Amy is new in town after her mother's death to cancer. Miles has also been saving up money for years to send his grandparents on a trip to the International Bowling Museum and Hall of Fame, but since Bubbie Louise's death, it's all for Grandpop. Among the things that worry him are the many different ways to die and Grandpop Billy's health. Miles is a worrier whose family owns Buckington Bowl. ![]()
